Curious how everyone is acquiring their allocation... I know many don't like to discuss publicly, figure a poll would allow people to share privately.

Check all that apply.

you might consider an ADM range as multiple choice which would yield more information. Such as ADM, 30k, 60k, 90k+.

ADM 30K plus European delivery or a watch is different from straight 95K ADM.

It’s probably taken me 7-8 years to get to know my dealer and their team well enough to get the allocations I want. I can’t get the limited ones as easily, that requires more begging. Probably have purchased the same amount of regular cars as GT cars at this point from them.

Money talks and loyalty walks. I'm currently in my 14th Porsche and have no juice to get one without a large ADM, at least in my area.

That's what I have to, bought as many non-GT cars as GT cars from my dealer. I can get most GT cars but don't even ask about the numbered ones because I'm not a big enough fish.

Most all dealers in CA are like that unfortunately, loyalty means nothing to them.

One owner broke down their point system for me a few weeks ago. He bases their allocations on number of cars purchased, number of GT cars purchased, number of services performed and a few other things. He literally keeps a chart.

I know that Santa Barbara and Fresno sell their GT cars for MSRP to their good customers, don't know of any another ones that do.

Should have an option for being early or creating their waitlist

I was definitely this. I unfortunately can't edit the poll after it's been posted.
